Podcast: The life and legacy of Justice Antonin Scalia

Share:

Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia passed away on February 13. In his nearly thirty years on the Court, Justice Scalia was a tireless advocate for textualist and originalist interpretation. He was, in short, a passionate visionary who transformed the terms of constitutional debate.

Two of Justice Scalia’s former Supreme Court clerks—and legal giants in their own right—joined We the People to swap stories and reflect on the Justice’s constitutional legacy.
